Customizable Map Settings

[oTaCon]

These settings allow for far greater customization of gameplay. The settings should be entered into the map's description field while editing the map in Sedit.

• HealthBonus: How much health you get for a kill. Range is 0-224. Normal is 60.

• RepairRate: Amount of health a player will gain per second while on a repair tile. Range is 0-224. Normal is 2.

All of the above settings can be set separately for flaggers by prefixing the setting name with an F (FHealthBonus instead of HealthBonus). These settings must appear AFTER the normal setting in the map description (if the corresponding normal setting is specified).

Damage settings refer to the amount of damage received by the ship. So, for example, "LaserDamage=225, FLaserDamage=0" means that a non-flagging ship will die from one laser hit, but a flagging ship will take no damage at all from lasers.

FShipSpeed is relative to ShipSpeed, so "ShipSpeed=200, FShipSpeed=50" means that a flagging ship moves at 50% of a non-flagging ship's speed (100 in this case).

Miscellaneous Settings

• FlagInPlay: Enables extension of the game clock if a flag is in play. Can be 0 (disable) or 1 (enable). Normal is 0.
• ElectionTime: For assassin maps, the time teams have to grab a flag. Specified in seconds. Default is 50.
• FogOfWar: Enables fog of war shading in the map. Can be 0 (disable) or 1 (enable). Normal is 0.
• DisableSwitchSound: Disables the switch notification sound. Can be 0 (disable) or 1 (enable).
• TurretHealth: Amount of health for turrets. Range 0-10000. Default is 224.
• DominationWin: Points that a team must get to win a round on a domination map. Default is 9999999.
• SwitchWin: Number of switches a team must get to win a round on a switch map. Defaults that every switch must be flipped.
• InvisibleMap: Disables drawing of the map. Can be 0 (disable) or 1 (enable). <----Not sure what this setting does.

Holding Time Settings

• HoldingTime: The base holding time. Same as typing the number into Sedit's "Holding Time" blank except it also allows a base holding time of 0 (which Sedit does not). Specified in seconds. Range is 0-255.

The following five settings add time to the base holding time, and are only applied after the first spawn of the round. They are all specified in milliseconds. Ranges are -999999 to 999999.

• DHT_players: Adds time for each player in the game.
• DHT_time: Adds time for each elapsed minute of the game.
• DHT_deaths: Adds time for each death that player has.
• DHT_score: Adds time for each cap that player's team has.
• DHT_turrets: Adds time for each dead turret on that player's team.

Min/Max in seconds:

• DHT_minimum: Minimum total holding time. Specified in seconds.
• DHT_maximum: Maximum total holding time. Specified in seconds.

Note 1: The old settings (DHT, MinDHT, MaxDHT) have been kept so maps that use them won't break, but new maps should use the new settings.

DHT: Dynamic holding time. Sets the holding time to (DHT x number of players in game). Specified in milliseconds.

MinDHT: Minimum dynamic holding time. If DHT is used, the holding time will not be less than this. Specified in seconds.

MaxDHT: Maximum dynamic holding time. If DHT is used, the holding time will not be more than this. Specified in seconds.

Note 2: An absolute minimum holding time of 1 second is enforced regardless of any of these settings.

Turret Settings (Animation Offsets in Sedit)

To customize the rate and type of weapons each turret will fire, refer to the attached chart.
The map description (edited within Sedit) must include "Format=1.1".
